How can you tell if the magnification is too small?
I'm not sure if this watch is real or not, but mainly because the magnification of the date seems a bit too small. Maybe that's because of the angle of the photo? What do you guys think?

I think you have a bigger issue than the magnification. Watch is clearly fake.

OP, is this a watch you own or thinking of buying? Either way, there are numerous issues with it. In my opinion, it's a fake or franken at best.
Move on and look for the genuine article.

The magnification is horrible...but then again...so is this fake. Hopefully you do not intend on purchasing it?

Total fake, but regardless of authenticity, it looks absolutely disgusting. If you do some research and handle a real Rolex (even for a moment), you'll realize they are perfect in every way. This watch is worth nothing more than a happy a meal (if that).

That thing will never look right regardless of the angle of the photo........except perhaps after being hit with a 14lb sledge hammer.
